5. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS – CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS

The recovery trend of gaming revenues growth rate that began in the second half of 2014 remained in the first nine months of 2016, however this positive trend lost it empowerment compared to last year (2015), with special emphasis in the last couple of months, which resulted in a lower performance for the period in analysis as an all. As consequence, the gaming revenues increased in the first nine of 2016 when compared

with the same period last year, 3,2% in the industry and 2% in the Estoril-Sol Group.

If this positive trend continues in the months to come, the year 2016 may continue the positive game

revenue evolution cycle that began in 2015,and broke with a negative cycle observed since 2008 which caused accumulated game revenues losses of nearly 30% in Portugal.

The Estoril-Sol Group, through its subsidiaries, operates three of the four biggest casinos in Portugal, accounting for 63% of net income and taxes paid and generated by the activity in Portugal.

Revenues from gambling in Portugal during the first nine months of 2016 amounted to approximately 221,7 million Euros, an increase of 3,2% compared to last year which represents almost 7 million Euros.

In the same period the Group land base game revenues achieved 137,5 million Euros, an increase of 2% equivalent to 2,8 million Euros.

first nine months of 2016 compared to same period last year. Estoril-Sol supported almost 2,5 million Euros with loan interests during the first nine months of 2016.

The favorable combination of game revenues growth, substantial financial bank debt reduction and cost structure stability allowed the Group to show a positive consolidated net result of 6,2 million Euros by the end of September 2016 compared to earnings of 2,4 million Euros in the previous year.

By analyzing the land base results at casino level, it is possible to conclude that only Casino Lisboa has a positive net result, approximately 10,6 million Euros. Still, it is important to highlight the fact that in the first nine months of 2016, all Group casinos shown positive operational results (EBITDA).

It must be emphasize that these performances, with special focus over Casino da Póvoa, have been

repeatedly penalized by tax rates applied to game revenues, which in the case of Casino da Póvoa achieve a 59% effective tax rate over game revenues for the period ended September 2016, proving once more the high and inadequate levels of taxation over game revenues given the current situation of the Portuguese casinos.

Therefore, It will be prudent and realistic to foresee the continuation of moderate and gradual recovery of activity levels and operational results generated by the Group casinos, conditioned by the need to continue the consolidation budget process as well as the reduction of the Group financial bank debt.

6. RELEVANT FACTS

  • During the first quarter of 2013, after a unanimous vote taken at the headquarters of the Portuguese Association of Casinos as well as within the Board of Estoril-Sol, the operating companies from the Group Estoril-Sol, have filed lawsuits against the State in which they seek to be restored the financial balance of Gaming Concessions. Such a claim is founded, among other reasons, because the State, through its actions and omissions has given rise to changes in circumstances that were the basis for the negotiation of the gaming concessions. Of them highlights the fact that it was assumed for tax basis a continuing and significant increase of gaming revenue throughout the concession period. Despite not having checked this proposition due to the economic climate and as a result of the State attitude in relation to online gambling and illegal gambling, among others, it continued to require them to pay very high taxes, calculated on revenue that the Concessionaires did not obtain. Thus, remained no alternative to the Concessionaires that was not to challenge with the competent Administrative and Fiscal Courts the settlements of tax to which they were presented, and for that purpose submit the necessary judicial guarantees. However by the time of approval of this report, and despite the fact that all tax settlements were contested by the Group, all taxes are without exception, or paid or its payment was legally postponed under Decree-Law 1/2015, and for this reason the Group Estoril-Sol does not have any overdue debt related with game taxes.

  • On the 28th June 2015 the online gambling regulation approved by decree-law 66/2015 entered into force. This regulation now applicable, approved by the Government, represents, once again, a penalty to the gambling concessionaires unilaterally terminating the exclusive right of exploitation of games of fortune and chance in Portugal, - a right by which the concessionaires paid considerable sums and assumed significant additional obligations - the law published, puts them in equal circumstances as the offenders of the past who, in the meantime, managed to illegally build their customer database, key factor to ensure the success of this business, being noticeable by the studies conducted, that the current gambling concessionaires little or nothing would be able to benefit, in the future, from the law deliberated in the meantime, in order to balance their operating accounts.

  • The Board of Directors of Turismo de Portugal, IP, at a meeting held on 25 July 2016, decided under the Legal Framework for Games and Online Betting (RJO), approved by Decree-Law No. 66/2015 of 29 April, assign to Estoril Sol Digital, Online Gaming Products and Services, SA, a license for online gambling exploration, which will operate under the internet domain www.estorilsolcasinos.pt/ . This license shall be valid for an initial period of three years from the date of issue, expiring on July 24th, 2019, if not renewed, under the terms and conditions set out in RJO. Estoril Sol Digital, began exploring the online gambling activity in the web site mentioned above on the same day the license was issued, ie 25th July 2016.

-Within the online gaming activities, which is carried out through Estoril Sol Digital, Online Gaming Products and Services, S.A, a subsidiary company of Estoril Sol (III) – Turismo, Animação e Jogo, S.A., a company owned by the issuer (Estoril-Sol, SGPS, S,A,), signed with Vision Gaming Holding Limited, a company based in Malta, an association agreement, through which it holds a minority interest, corresponding to 49.9998% of the share capital of Estoril Sol Digital, keeping the Estoril Sol (III) SA most of the capital and votes in that company (Estoril Sol Digital, Online Gaming Products and Services, S.A.). From this operation resulted no gains/losses for the Estoril-Group, as the partial sale of the capital have been carried out by the same value of its constitution.

39.559.885 39.458.854 55.974.463 55.718.378

The average interest rates for financing, borne by the Group, including commissions and other charges, come within an interval of between 4,74% and 6,5%.

Some of the financing operations, mainly bank loans, include commitments to maintain certain financial ratios based on contractually negotiated limits (financial covenants).

These ratios are:

  • Net Debt / Ebitda;
  • Financial autonomy.

On the 30 th September 2016 and 31st December 2015, these ratios were according the contractually negotiated limits.

The amount classified as non-current bank loans, for a total amount of 3.114.041 Euros, falls due in ac5cordance with the following schedule:

  • 1.559.020 Euros in 2017; - 1.555.021 Euros in 2018;

Depending on the operating funds that are freed up, we feel the financial risk to which the associated undertakings are exposed is minimal, and the same understanding has prevailed in the examination carried out by financial institutions, as shown by the fact that assets guarantees are dispensed with for operations under contract.

The amount included in the column "Nominal value" corresponds to the contracted value that is still owing. The column "Balance sheet value" is added to the nominal value of financial charges already incurred but still not due, less interest and or commissions paid in advance.

Annual Gaming Tax (difference to minimum grant):

The Decree Law n º 29/88 of 3 August, down in paragraph 1 of Article 3, the concessionaire is obliged to pay an annual payment amounting to 50% of the gross gaming revenues. This payment cannot be, under any circumstances, lower than the values in the table attached to that Decree Law.

The minimum annual contributions were established (prices of the year 2000) by Decree-Law No. 275/2001 of 14 December 2001, by the time the Concessions Contracts were extended by fifteen years more.

At the beginning of the year 2015 the Regulatory-Decree nº1/2015 of 21st January came to approve the split payment in installments of the annual minimum contributions calculated based on Decree-Law 275/2001, subject to prior approval from "Turismo de Portugal" of the payments schedule proposed by the Game Concessionaire Companies.

The Regulatory-Decree nº1/2015 was applied for the first the time to the amounts related to the year ended December 2014, which initially payment deadline was on January 31st, 2015.

The value of Casino da Póvoa minimum annual payment for the year 2015 at 2000 current prices, is 18.305.883 Euros. According to Article 4 of the Decree n º 29/88 of 3rd August this value is updated based on the index of consumer prices for the mainland, excluding housing, published by the National Statistics Institute (INE), for the year to which the payment relates to. Following this update, the minimum annual payment for the year 2015 stood at 24.807.765 Euros.

In 2015 Casino da Póvoa gross gaming revenues amounted to 41.962.037 Euros. The 50% annual payment over gross gaming revenues represents 20,981,019 Euros, a figure lower than the minimum annual payment calculated pursuant to Decree-Law No. 275/2001. By that reason the Casino da Póvoa Concessionaire would have to pay to the state the remaining amount in the total of 3,826,746 Euros for the year 2015. (Note 28). Of

this amount, 2,098,102 Euros are at the date of this report settled by the Concessionaire Company since they had the maturity date on January 31st, 2016. The remaining 1,728,645 Euros according to prior authorization from Turismo de Portugal will be paid in three equal annual instalments, 576.215 Euros, on December 31st , 2016, 2017 and 2018.

The remaining 4,886,853 Euros registered in the caption "Other accounts payable – non-current", as "Annual payment – difference to minimum grant" is related to the following instalment payment schedules in accordance with a prior authorization from Turismo de Portugal:

  • Instalments payment schedule approved for 2014, that will be paid in three equal annual instalments, on December 31st, 2019, 2020 and 2021.
  • Instalments payment schedule approved for 2015, that will be paid in three equal annual instalments of 576.215 Euros, on December 31st, 2016, 2017 and 2018. The instalment due in 2016 is recorded as "Other accounts payable – current".

17. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND ASSETS, GUARANTEES AND COMMITMENTS

Contingent liabilities

In the normal course of its activity, the Group is involved in diverse legal proceedings. Given the nature of these and the provisions set up, in accordance with studies and opinions of legal consultants, the current expectation is that the respective outcome will not lead to any material effects in terms of the activity undertaken, the asset position and the result of the operations.

The main situations are the following:

  • Differences in understanding between the Group and the Tax Authorities over Corporation Tax (IRC), relating to the years 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, with regard to the taxation of undocumented expenses incurred in the course of the gaming activity of subsidiaries that form part of the Group and which operate games of fortune as their main activity. During the year 2013 occurred the 1st instance verdict contrary to the allegations and convictions of the Group relating to the process for the years 2007 to 2009. It is the Company's belief, grounded in favourable opinions from legal advisers, that a final decision should be favourable, which is why the Group appealed to higher courts. On the date of these financial statements there are also previous legal decisions that are in the Group's favour, as well as judicial jurisprudence which is favourable to the Group on this matter. Even so, on this date the Group has bank guarantees provided in favour of the Finance Office of Cascais amounting to 7.197.635 Euros.

  • One of the subsidiaries of the Group made a collective dismissal in 2010 within the terms established in the Law, which affected 112 employees. Some of these contested this procedure and filed a lawsuit in Court trying to have this overturned and for their reintegration as Company staff. The Company and the legal consultants responsible for the case consider that there is a high probability of the Company winning and, therefore, it has set up a provision corresponding only to the legal obligations allowed for in labour legislation in cases of collective dismissal which it will have to pay to the former employees by way of indemnity evens if it wins the case. As at 31st December 2015 there are 30 former employees with pending litigation related with this dismissal. The provision accrued within the accounts amounts to 763.545 Euros. During the first six months of 2016 the Company came to terms with another 11 former employees. As at the 30th September 2016 the Group had dispute with 19 former employees and accrued financial responsibility in the above terms of approximately 476.271 Euros.

  • One of the subsidiaries of the Group made a collective dismissal in 2013 within the terms established in the Law, which affected 21 employees. Some of these contested this procedure and filed a lawsuit in Court trying to have this overturned and for their reintegration as Company staff. The Company and the legal consultants responsible for the case consider that there is a high probability of the Company winning and, therefore, it has set up a provision corresponding only to the legal obligations allowed for in labour legislation in cases of collective dismissal which it will have to pay to the former employees by way of indemnity evens if it wins the case. As at 30 th September 2016 there are 14 former employees with pending litigation related with this dismissal. The provision accrued within the accounts amounts to 360.000 Euros.

The Group also sets up diverse technical provisions related with the normal functioning of its main activity, the operation of games of fortune. Among the more significant ones we should highlight:

  • The existence of an account payable for a total amount of 1.803.552 Euros in respect of liabilities for accumulated gaming premiums. These liabilities are revised on a monthly basis, according to the accumulated premiums announced in the diverse gaming rooms of the Casinos run by the Group (Note 16).

Guarantees provided

On 30 th September 2016 and 31st December 2015 the guarantees provided by the Group were as follows:

Sep - 2016 Dec - 2015
Obligations related with the Special Gaming Tax 7.250.000 22.050.000
Tax lawsuits in hand / litigation 7.414.888 7.414.888
Current suppliers 39.250 39.250
14.704.138 29.504.138

In January 2016 the Group saw its responsabilities with bank guarantees reduced by 15,4 million Euros, as they were related with the Special Game Tax from the year ended 31st December 2015 paid during January 2016 (Note 16).

18. CONSOLIDATED RESULTS PER SHARE

The consolidated result per basic share of the years ended on 30th September 2016 and 2015 was determined as follows:

Sep - 2016 Sep - 2015
Net profit of the Equity holders of the Parent Company 6.223.785 2.461.381
Average weighted number of shares in circulation 11.931.119 11.931.119
Result per basic share 0,52 0,21

Due to the fact that there are no situations that cause dilution, the net result per diluted share is the same as the net result per basic share.
